Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1139 Shortcomings
Zhou Xu naturally didn't take it too seriously as it was just a small accident. He even had some expectations in his heart. Was there any brave warrior in their Great Zhou who could bring back some female warriors for him?

But this requires considerable courage, and this "bravery" refers to all aspects.

Don't think that all the female warriors are beauties. The reality is just the opposite.

The royal family or aristocracy within the ethnic group like Yalvet leads a relatively comfortable and easy life on weekdays. They are able to live a life of luxury and naturally take good care of themselves.

But most of the female warriors were weathered, big and strong with flesh on their faces.

Even the great general under Yalvette's command, whose status in the clan was aristocratic, had the appearance and body shape of a rugged female gorilla, and his powerful fighting ability was clearly visible to the naked eye.

As for personality, according to Zhou Xu's personal experience, they are basically not much different from a group of soldier hooligans and rough men, and they also seriously lack discipline.

Taking this into consideration, Zhou Xu actually always felt that Yalvette's military discipline was really poor.

However, considering that this is another country's internal affairs, even though the two sides are now allies, Zhou Xu did not intend to say much about this matter. The two sides have not yet reached that point.

After discussing this matter and letting Yalvette rest assured and take care of her pregnancy, Zhou Xu turned and left.

There have been a lot of internal affairs in their Great Zhou during this period.

In just one winter, all the human labor force that could be mobilized from the southern border had been transferred here.

This has accelerated the construction work at the Railway Bureau.

With the arrival of spring, the start of spring farming work has made the Ministry of Agriculture extremely busy.

After all, in the new year, their Great Zhou's demand for food has become higher.

On the one hand, a batch of stored grain was sold to the female warrior tribe, as their Great Zhou also needed to fill the granary as soon as possible.

On the other hand, after entering the peace period, the Great Zhou, which now has a sufficient population base, has a very fast growth efficiency in total population.

Although these little brats cannot provide much labor for their Great Zhou, they all need to eat.

It was impossible for Zhou Xu to wait until all the mouths waiting for food opened before starting to expand the area of ​​farmland and increase grain planting.

So he recently called the Minister of Agriculture Zhao Geng and people from the Population Bureau to hold a meeting, roughly estimated the population growth rate of their Great Zhou in the next few years, and then started to expand the farmland area and increase grain production in advance.

Currently, the two largest farms in their Great Zhou are Plain Farm and South Border Farm.

At this point in time, all the plain farms had already been reclaimed. Under this premise, if they wanted to continue to increase the area of ​​farmland, they could only start from the southern farms.

During this period, Zhou Xu actually considered whether to arrange a farm in the Northeast region.

Later I thought about it and realized that there was no need for it, at least not at this stage.

The Northeast region is not far from the Plains Farm. In addition to the Plains Farm, the Black Moon City farm is also nearby. With food supply in the surrounding area, the transportation cost is not that high.

Not to mention that the railway to the northeastern border is already being laid.

Once the train is put into use, the movement and transportation efficiency from Black Moon City to the Northeast region will be greatly improved!
In this case, there is no need to add a basically unnecessary project at this critical juncture when the internal labor force is tight. Considering the busy affairs in the new year, Zhou Xu also adjusted according to the actual situation, appropriately reducing his own cultivation time and investing more time in the Qinzheng Hall to handle government affairs.

Only after the busiest period was over did I turn my attention back to cultivation.

[By the way, what’s the situation with the bracelet? ”]

The thought flashed through his mind, and Zhou Xu, who had just finished a day's work, quickly returned to his bedroom and took out the 'Mage Killer' to confirm.

Compared to when he stopped injecting energy, the energy contained in the bracelet has increased.

This shows that the bracelet itself does have an automatic recovery effect.

However, this kind of automatic recovery mantra is basically set on the premise that it will not affect the surrounding environment.

In other words, the recovery rate is very low!
The enchanted equipment they had previously had might have been limited by level or type. While consuming low amounts of energy, it was also very easy to fill them with energy, which made the disadvantage of low recovery speed not obvious on them.

But in front of this 'Mage Killer', this shortcoming is clearly revealed.

Calculating the time, it’s been almost a month, right?

Taking Zhou Xu himself as a reference, the efficiency of natural recovery in this month has increased the energy in this bracelet by about half.

According to this efficiency, the energy contained in this bracelet is about 50% to 60% of his current peak state. If he relies entirely on natural recovery...

Wow, it took almost a year! And it’s not even fully charged!

Zhou Xu's eyes went dark as he quickly came to this conclusion in his mind.

Under normal circumstances, don't expect natural recovery unless you don't use it for two or three years.

Zhou Xu's focus now is to test the actual performance of the bracelet. Although the introduction has roughly explained it to him, he lacks practical experience and thinks it is ultimately unreliable.

Considering this, he definitely couldn't wait that long.

The simplest and most efficient way now is to charge directly!
With this thought in mind, Zhou Xu quickly injected the power of mantra into his body.

Putting aside the fact that the natural recovery efficiency is too low, the more energy he injects into the bracelet, the higher his expectations will be.

Unexpectedly, this time, after injecting almost 20% of the energy, Zhou Xu clearly felt that the energy in the bracelet was full.

A rough estimate shows that it is about 80% of his current energy in his prime. This result made Zhou Xu feel a little relieved, but also a little disappointed.

Deep down, he still hoped that this equipment could be even more powerful.

Zhou Xu quickly adjusted his mindset, picked up the bracelet, and thought about how to test it.

Then I quickly realized that this was a high-risk job!
Considering his own strength, if the effect is not as good as he expected, or if it is simply released incorrectly and does not take effect, then wouldn't the opponent be killed by him instantly?
On the other hand, if this thing works and directly bounces the attack back, wouldn’t he be in danger?
When Zhou Xu thought of this, he felt numb all over. If he wanted to ensure the safety of both parties involved in the test, this thing was too difficult to test!
It was not until this moment that Zhou Xu clearly realized that when he encountered enemies in the past, he mainly used one set of skills to kill them one by one. "Fire Dance" could barely be considered a soft skill for close defense, but when it came to self-protection, he lacked some hard means!
